Laura started going green years ago because her twin sons had asthma and she was concerned about the effects on them of the chemicals contained in many conventional products that were being used to clean their home. Laura found that making changes such as switching to green cleaning products greatly improved her sons' health. Laura is passionate about the environment and organic living and believes that the chemicals found in so many every day household and personal care products are a very immediate concern. In founding The Ultimate Green Store.com, Laura's goal is to help consumers make better choices for their health, their families and the planet and to make shopping for green products convenient, accessible and educational.
